@mommyofthree86 Not sure about an u/s, but I didn't hear one with the Doppler until week 13. i have heard some people say they heard it at 11 weeks, but I was never able to hear anything until week 13.

I saw it on an ultrasound at 6 weeks and again at 9 weeks, and I heard it on the Doppler at 10 weeks. Do u/s have audio technology?

I saw it on ultrasound screen at 6 weeks. Will go back for another checkup at 9 weeks. Can't wait!

@mommyofthree86 I heard mine via ultrasound around 6 weeks, this is my first, and have had some minor complications, so I have had a few ultrasounds. I must say that heartbeat is the sweetest sound in the world.

I heard my little bean at 9 weeks. An amazing sound that made this pregnancy feel even more real. Can't wait to see little one again during my next ultrasound!!!

My dc found a heartbeat at 8 weks with a doppler. Saw it at 9 weeks on ultrasound:)

@mommyofthree86 Each office does things differently. We SAW the heart beating at 7 weeks but were told it was too early to hear. I go back at around 11 weeks for the Doppler to hear it but no ultrasound to look again until about week 17-20. It just depends when they schedule you.
